    Hi, When I bought my Yucca plant it was very healthy, green, and prickly. When fall came around it started getting droopy brown leaves pretty often. So I would trim them off. Then winter hit so I moved the plant to my front room where there was more light and my husband even hung up a full spectrum light for my plants ( I have alot of them) and the Yucca just keeps dying. It's not big and lush like it was when I first bought it anymore. It looks....well...."Yucca". I water all my plants once a week. Maybe I am watering it too much?

    Is the soil dry to the touch when you water once a week? I think weekly in theory is fine, but perhaps let the soil dry out completely if it doesn't already (and to about an inch depth) in between waterings.
